Dr. Hastings in his Weekly Message isays influenza now covers the great- er part of this continent. Boîvman- ville Public Schools were dismissed Monday morning-four teachers re- ported sick and only haîf of the number of seholars were present in some of the rooins. Influenza and common colds are rife during the late faîl and earlY winter months. In fact, the re- cords of all respirato -y diseases for years back show ý,u- little variation so far as the number of cases is con- cerned, with the exception of 19181 and 1919 when the world--wide cpi- (lfucof influenza of a \'ery severe type prevailed, and )-ne or two years s:nce we have had probably an un- usually large number of cases, but %xhether it bc influenza or 'he cern- mon cold is a maitter of indifference, and we should not concerfi oursel-~ vcs materially about that ï3oth of ýhüse discase., are ex- tremely cont'ugious, quite as~ much so as smallpo:x. Thoey both con- stitute a decided element of dai ger so far as preparing the soil for more serious diseases such as broncho- luneumonia and pneumonia. In fact, there are verv few, if any, in- stances of de:&th from the comm un cold, or frori simple influenza. TIhe death recordls in the vast majority of case.s, whten carefu!ly analyzed and intelligently ,iterpreted, reveal the fact that the individtal died from pneunionia or 'bron hc-penumonia, following a severe cold or grippe, as the case may be. We have repeatedly drawn the at-I tendion of the citizens to the fact, that during the late autumn, wintcv and early spring we are more or lessj carriers of the germas that are ra- sponsible for ýthe common cold, in- fluenza, pneumonia and broncho- pneumonia. If the mucous mem- brane of our nose and throat is in a fit and healthy condition, it sirnply constitutes a pitched battle in which nature -wins out in the vast major- ity of cases. However, should our resistance of the mucous ,nembrane of the nose and tOroat Fpconîe .ow- erd,* the genms that have been heldi at bay, gain the ascendency over, these natural defending forces ofý the body and inflammnatory condîi tions develop. which are known as, codi mehead, the comnion cold or coryza, or influenza. 1'* * * The majonity of these dîseases ifi not treated properly, spread rapid.lyl down to the bronchial tubes, result-i ing in broncho-,pneumoniv or iuneum-ý and the natural resisting powers cfi our bronchial tubes and lungs, per- mitting the gens of pneumon ia, which we are carrying more or less aIl the time, to gain the ascendency,l and hence the disastrous results. Therefore, ît is quite obvious thati if we are going to safeguard oursel-1 ves, we must look upon the coeiniîîin cold, as ýwe have repeatedly enîphas-1 ized ,as one of the most îenious dis- eases that we have te contend with,I and certainly one of the mogt costly,l as it is responsible for mure loss cfl tue than probably anv o>ther haîfi The Physicians of Bowmanville' dozen diseases that we have. have agreed te close their offces 1 Wednesday aftcrnoons.

THE EDITOR TALKS The germs responsible for the coin- mon cold and influena are found in the mucous membrane of the nose, throat and mouîth, and therefore, %when we cough or sneez.e, if it is not muzzled by a handkerchief held over the face, we spread 4-ie droplets. They may be inhaled hy others who) e re nearby arnd thus infect them. Fvery ýone of these droplets af in- fected persons containis myriads of the germs that are responsible for the disease. Do not cough or saieeze into any person's face, nor permit any one to cough or sneeze into yours. Avoid overcrowded public places and if you have contracted a cold or iniluenza, let ius again enîphasize as forcefully as we can that the mnost strategic fi_,hting grouuîd that we iave for this d'sease is in our beds Good advice for evt-rylîndy and4 here is more sane suggeutions, too7 If yoîî have the syniptonis of a col<l 1 r influenza, zo haime, take a hot bath, go to bcd, take' a 4'lse of re- laxing med'c:nc castor )il, saîts or1 sennta, and a hit drink, preferably1 milk, and remain in bed until yo)u are practically normal, or until your family physician considers you are1 safe in getting up. If these pre-i cautions are taken ,three or fouri days, in a large percentage of cases. will comnpletely overcome and con-] t-cl the condition and save you much1 more time and Possihiv disastrousi results through complications. 1 Let us repeat again that the( gens responsible for these diseasesi are found in lhe ipper respiratory tract, that is in th, nose, throat andt mouth. It must be .perfectly apparent tnen that these germs are spread to oth- ers by sneezing and cougbi.ng and also by the cemmon eating and difinking utensils, hence the -.iecess;ity for careful sterîlizing of al eatin-, and drinking utensils, and, if any member of the family contracts - fiuenza, he should be quarantined ard isolated ns carefully and as thor- oughly as if he had sinallpn t, in or- der to protect the other mem bers of the family, and aIl of his eatinF md4 drinking utensils sbeuld be carefully sterilized. How frequen.tly we have hoard, wben speaking to an individual that we have met about his havingaol - Oyes, I have a cold; in fnct we have aIl had one-it l'as jîîst run througb the family". Now that is a very common occurrence and it i, merely because, ns I have already pointed out, we have no more con- tagious or communicable disease thn hecomo cldorin*tènzà Hon. Stanley Baldwin, Premier of Great Bitain, said in speech in the House of Commons on February 16, 1923-. "The English language is the richest in the world in thought. The English laoguage is the nichest p n the wonld in monosyllables. Fouýr iwords of one syllable each, are words Iwhich contain salvation for this we are most ,thankful that at Bownianville High School Com- mencement on Friday evening Prof- iessor Alfred Tennyson DeLury, M. A., F.R.C.S., Dean of the Faculty of Arts* in the University of Tor- onto ,and a di.stinguished graduate of B.H.S., coupled our naine as a friend of educatiion with those of îProf. John Squair, M.A., Inspector A]bert Odell and the venerable Chairman of the High School Board, Mr. W. B. Couch, for, although it is over 50 years since we changed the school rostruni for the editorial sanictuni, we are very grateful that our interest in the education of Young men and Young women has înot waned and in recognition of our interest in education we have been elected to serve on boýth the High and Public School Boards of Bow- manville; and also on the Board of Managers of Albert College, Belle- vifor 12 years. When we laid down the master's pointer for the editor's pen we adopted as our pro- gramn of operation The Home, The School, The Church and The Farm and our intere-sts stili centre around these four institutions ,as our week- ly Talks on this page evîidence. This week we shall talk on educa- tion. At this season of the year niany young persons are consider- ing how best they can spend the winter months in an effort to im- prove their education. We speak from our personal experience when we state that the best value we ever received for money spenit on our education was the amount a mionth's attendance at the old British Anieri- can Business College, Toronto, Cost us away back in 1872. We sincere- ly believe that cýompared wîth the op- portunities and life-long benefits a thorough course in a modern busi- ness college spreade before both sexes of Young people the cosit of obtaining a business training is small; indeed, we know of no >ther educ-ation that costis so little and is worth so much. With reference to book-keeping alone, we belie,ve that many a busif- ness man today wou]d he better off if be woul take a vacation for say two montha and take a course in book-keeping, or attend a night school for that pumipose. "Too busy to keep books" is ofttimes the rea- son why many business men have failed in business. They think thati lookkeeping is a bore, and aIse that it is a useleas expense. A modern business college teaches many valuable suhjects that aIl per- sons would bc better foIr knowing about business, but by al means learn bookkeeping, study commer- cial Iamw, learn bow to jugigle the keys on a ty'pcwriter, and, if possible, study shorthand. With these things and a fighting disposition and a de- sire to get along and make som e money, even a lack of capital will net be a bindrance. "oit is the most vital part o' a' man's business knowing howr to run a set of double entry books and be- houses in towns and cities with th er- oughly competent office help. Thous- ands of men and women can test ify to the usefulness and good work done by t1hee business schools, sorne cf which advertise in this journal. Now ,young man, young wonuan,, have you made plans for the fu'ure9 If you are looking forward 1 a car- eer in busness, you shoulti 1k yur- self this question, "Where ain 1 go- ing to be in business thre years from now--five year' lfrom now-- ten years froni now?"ý Have you thought definitel:7 andi intelligently about how you may dc-1 velop yourself into that kind of a man or woman for whom organized business to-day is constantly seek- ing? You mnay be s universfity student or college graduate and stiflho un- prepared through lack of special training to do a definite work in a business office; or you may be among the many men and women who left sehool wben a mere boy or girl in order to go to work, and you feel that the lack of an educa- tion is a hindrance to your advance-I ment. It is not the educational, test that is your stumbling block. But are you willing for a compar-1 atively short tume, to set aside cer- tain definite hours every week f'or I class attendance and study, lettingi nothing in the way Of plleasure or other interests interefere with youri purpose?1 Have you the courage and the de- cision to inake an investment of money ,time, and encrgy which will, almost positively insure your business I advancement and increas5e your earn-' ing capacity? If you answer "yes" to these two questions, and if you wîll thon stick to your decision once made, it will be only a question of hume beflore. the Businessý World will search fori you ,and finding you, say: Enter bore and take up properi work; important policies are to bel discussed, and important changes in matters of organizatiion are to be determincd and carried out. We need a man who bas breadtbî of view and a scientif'ic understand- i ing ,not only of the smail aspects of business ,but of the big aspects as well-a man who knows and can achieve and develop. That is why we have seught you and brought to you-Opportunity. Since the foregoing was put ini type, we have read an aiticle in i World Wide on "Qualities fra Business Career". An Engis;hmar.n asked several successful business men, among o:ther questions, "What training is necessary for a young, man entering a business careeir what qualities does he need to mak hini successful and what are the op-1 pertunities offered to 'him?1 conuy n orti wil oridVL and îng able to makRe eut a profit and Aseswr eyvnes nte they are: "Faith", "Hope", losa atàtement is a very fine thing. fiAt wo e tions ry a the nte ment in this country today, which Perbaps yeu, like so many others, a business requires specific training, has not faith in the people, hope in think that bookkeeping consists of but on what qualities make for suc- theo future, love for its fellowmen, keeping track of the cash and those ces these were given: Persever- and wbîcb will net work and work who have net paid, and a few de-j ance, honesty, tact, imagination, in- and work, wl ever rn this tais9 like that.
